Chapter 119 Meeting Anabelle
Tinsley was quietly eating her lunch when one of the members of the set quickly rushed toward her.
"White Tigress, one Miss Annabel is outside looking for you." The person quickly said to her which
made her frown.
Miss Anabelle? She didn't know who the person was. Still, Tinsley stood up because she doesn't know
what the person wanted to tell her.
But she had just taken a step outside when she suddenly froze.
Even by just looking at the other person, she already knew who Annabel was due to her face which
resembled Jarek's. Jarek's mom.
"Miss Annabel." Tinsley greeted with nervousness.
Annabel nodded her head to Tinsley, "I need a few minutes to talk to you, can I?" She asked
straightforwardly.
Tinsley nodded without hesitation. "I'll be back." She informed Annabel before running into the building.
Soon she returned to Annabel while dressing decently.
"Can we talk at the coffee shop?" Tinsley asked Annabel while pointing toward a coffee shop that was
just a few buildings away.
Annabel nods her head, "Of course."
And the both of them made their way to the coffee shop.
Walking to the coffee shop had helped release the tension and nervousness Tinsley was feeling.
After ordering they both evaluate each other secretly.
"How's Jarek? Your marriage and my grandchildren?" Annabel asked carefully and straightforwardly
after gulping the coffee.
"We are all fine," Tinsley replied carefully while staring at Annabel.
"I'm glad," Annabel said and stood up with a smile with that, she began to take steps toward the
cashier which Tinsley understood as a sign that Annabel wanted to pay and leave.
"After such a long time is that the only question you intended to ask?" Tinsley's nervousness she held
had now disappeared instead she was now calm and more angry.
Annabel took steps towards Tinsley in return and wanted to say something but Tinsley beat her to it.
"You broke a young boy's heart but you only intended to be spared with such a question? I thought you
came here for something more. It's such a pity that my initial thought was that, which was the reason I
came here with you." Tinsley declared and began to leave.
Annabel chuckled at Tinsley's act which made Tinsley frown and stop in her tracks because she
couldn't help but wonder what was funny in her speech.
"Not everything happened as you thought." Annabel suddenly uttered and pointed to Tinsley. "Please
sit." She told Tinsley.
After a few seconds of thinking, Tinsley returned to her seat. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
"I'm glad that you are his wife, not some other ladies who pretended to be nice but are actually devilish.
I am glad that you have Jarek's concern in your heart. Jarek chooses a nice pick and I'm proud."
Annabel replied with a smile.
Tinsley only nodded her head nonchalantly because those buttering words didn't work on her instead
she cut straight to the chase. "Miss, may I know the reason you left him at such an age? I can't believe
it's for nothing. Moreso, you only return after a decade." Tinsley replied straightforwardly.
"Does your husband not mind you sitting with me?" She asked with a teasing voice.
"Maybe," Tinsley replied while looking at her time. "I only have a five minute break. May I know if you're
willing to tell me or not so I would know whether to excuse myself or listen?"
Even though Tinsley's voice sounded rude, Annabel couldn't get annoyed because she knew Tinsley
was annoyed on behalf of Jarek. She smiled and decided to begin.
"Once upon a time, there was a lady who had a childhood friend she was betrothed to long before she
was born. The lady had always believed that she would be with her sweetheart for life until some
months before marriage when she caught her sweetheart cheating on her which she forgave.
Unfortunately for her, it was just the beginning. Being in different universities doesn't help stop the daily
rumors about her boyfriend's cheating topic. She was brokenhearted and tried to tell her parents about
canceling the marriage but the sweetheart kept on apologizing that it will be the last time but even until
a month before marriage it was the same thing. She was more annoyed than she had ever been and
she told her previously that she wanted to break the engagement but her parents refused and she
finally married her sweetheart. Her husband after the birth of her son became worse; he would rather
stay in the office than come home. Because of her son, she tried to get used to it until she received a
piece of news from her doctor that she had stage 3 stomach cancer which she may not survive." She
explained with a carefree voice but Tinsley was more shocked to hear that Annabel had stomach
cancer.
"You have stomach cancer?" She couldn't help but ask again because she was shocked by the news.
"Hm. My doctor told me I've been infected badly and because we only found out late, there's not
anything to do unless I take the prescribed drugs, I can only hope for good news. Until recently we had
a cure." She explained.
"Life was hell for me, I couldn't tell anyone my situation. My friends deserted me after marrying a
cheating scum. My husband doesn't even pay attention to me. And my son? He is too young to receive
such complicated news about his mother. I never expected that I was going to heal from this, so I will
rather he hate me before he receives my death news than make him cry for me after my death."
Annabel explained.
Tinsley was shocked by all she heard because even when her brain had tried to form different reasons
behind Annabel's actions, she never expected that it would be this. She never expected that Annabel
had gone through a lot.
"It's in the past, there's no need to cry." Annabel comforted her with a soft voice. With her hand, she
wiped the tears from Tinsley's eyes gently.
Tinsley didn't even know that she was crying until Annabel's hand landed on her cheeks. "I'm sorry."
She quickly apologized while breaking down more.
Even though she wanted to stop it, she found herself unable to because Tinsley couldn't help but
remember all that Annabel, Jarek, and she had gone through. They had gone through different things
in their life but does that mean it doesn't hurt them?
How nice would it be if her parents had a nice reason behind their actions?
"Your petty husband may think I'm bullying you," Anabelle replied jokingly. She stood up and hugged
Tinsley while patting her back. "It's okay. Stop crying." She comforted in a soft motherly voice which
made Tinsley freeze.
Tinsley had never felt parental love in her life; Annabel was the first person to show her one.
After a few minutes, she was able to compose herself. "I'm sorry, I showed you such an embarrassing
side." She said shyly.
Annabel smiled, finding Tinsley's shy face attractive. "It's nothing. Actually, I've craved to have a
daughter, you're so cute, I feel like I just took advantage of you now." She said with a teasing smile
which made Tinsley nod her head calmly even though she was secretly eager to hear Annabel say one
thing.
Seeing the expectant smile on Tinsley's face, Annabel couldn't help but chuckle, "So you can call me
Mom if you want." She says which made Tinsley's eyes lit up.
"Mom." She called in an expectant voice but she quickly used her hand to cover her lips when she
realized what she had just done.
Tinsley's action made Annabella laugh which further caused Tinsley's face to turn red with
embarrassment. "You are so cute," she remarked and took a sip of her coffee .
After a few minutes, Tinsley couldn't help but ask, "But is it okay without seeing and letting Jarek know
the truth, you must miss him a lot. Moreso, your grandchildren." Tinsley said which made Anabelle fall
silent.
Anabelle shook her head with a sigh, "He hated me now. Maybe there's no need to tell him anything.
As long as he has a happy life, I'm fine." She pronounced which made Tinsley annoyed.
